Alasdair, Barlow and Michael discuss and analyse the latest European football news. The boys look at Sevilla’s Europa League love affair, Italian football’s apparent renaissance, Florian Wirtz's transformational post-ACL return to the Bayer Leverkusen squad, Lyon’s homegrown frontline, and more. 1:35 - What signs have we seen, if any, from Xabi Alonso's fledgling career in the dugout to suggest that he can fulfil his seemingly presupposed managerial destiny? / 12:41 - What is the wider significance of the decision taken by the Italian Olympic Committee’s Board of Guarantors to overturn the sizeable points deduction previously imposed on Juventus? / 29:11 - Where might Osasuna be able to have some joy against Real Madrid in the upcoming Copa del Rey final? / 43:39 - How have academy graduates Rayan Cherki and Bradley Barcola in particular benefitted from Lyon's decision to appoint Laurent Blanc as the club's new manager back in October?
